Microsoft buying LinkedIn makes good sense — for Microsoft. I’m not so sure about LinkedIn users.

I was one of LinkedIn’s first members, joining on June 27, 2003, when it was still in beta. Over the years, it has gotten me a lot of work and helped me write countless stories. But now that Microsoft is buying the company, I’m really wondering whether I should leave.
